‘Follow’ and ‘Swallow’ are two brand new track from Crystal Fighters which display the bands genre-blurring credentials at their best yet.
‘Follow’ steadily builds up from it’s acoustic beginnings to quickly grow into a bass-beat laden track which manages to balance the mix of laid back and upbeat impeccably.
‘Swallow’ really caught me by surprise; at around a minute the beat begins to build before a rather heavy handed dubstep drop takes effect. It wasn’t at all what I was expecting and I’m not sure it totally works but the sheer audacity to combine a more traditional sound with something so fresh gets the thumbs up from me.
So far each of the three tracks I’ve previewed from Crystal Fighters upcoming debut album Star Of Love have been totally different, I’m excited to hear how the band can make these individual tracks work together on record.
Crystal Fighters – ‘Follow’
Crystal Fighters – ‘Swallow’
Star Of Love is due out September 20th and will features ‘Follow’ and ‘Swallow’ as well as the already previewed ‘In The Summer’.
